As a Christian it was super interesting to hear all the details about the Mormon church. I’m excited that you have developed a better relationship with God!

“Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.” ‭‭John‬ ‭14:6‬ ‭ A thought I had while watching, all said with love in my heart: Jesus is the way, church and other people do not save you. Because he loves you he wants a relationship with you. You don’t have to go through anyone or anything else to get to Jesus. ❤️

THE WAY IVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS

As a Christian, I am so so proud of you, Sydney. You presented every piece of information so well and so clear. I can see God working through you. You have such a beautiful heart and testimony. Your love for the Lord is so clear. I will keep you and God’s plans for you in my prayers.

Isn’t it amazing how God has used even a pandemic to bring people closer to Him?! God is using you to share such a powerful testimony about your journey. Thank you for being so brave and vulnerable. This video is going to spread the Gospel truth to so many people!! God is good. ❤️

I made an exmormon discord for all my other young exmormons who need a safe place to talk! discord.gg/b4JEZBTs

We needa part 3,4,5,etc.

I am so happy you're sharing this with us, God is using you!!

“Religion creates slaves. Relationship creates children of God.” ❤️🥰 -my godly friend Joan.

Syd it is so great to see you finding yourself and talking out. I have been watching you for years and I’m only a year older than you and it’s been so amazing to grow up with you. I know this is something you were really scared to do, but it was so great to watch. Questioning where you came from can be so hard especially so young and I’m just so proud girl

It sounds like so much work to be Mormon.. dang Jesus ain't that complicated XD

This was so encouraging, Sydney. Thank you for your testimony and willingness to share. I've been praying for you for a while now and it's so cool to see how God works in people's hearts. Love what you're doing for the KZfaq community. ❤

Only recently discovered your channel, and I'm so proud of you for your bravery and strength. Praying for continued peace, wisdom, and joy during this new season in your life.

Been waiting for part 2!!!! Just started watching and cannot wait.

This was incredible Syd. Thank you for sharing your story and explaining it all in so much depth. Good luck on your journey! Lots of love!

I’ve been WAITING for this… literally like did research on LDS in the meantime cus part 1 was so good

this was so interesting & informative. thank you for sharing your story!🤍

Thank you so much for sharing your story with us and being so vulnerable! I’m so happy for you!!

I’ve literally watched you since you (and I lol) were 16 and i am not a religious person at all but this video was so insightful and well done!!! i’m so proud ❤️❤️

Syd!! I’m so excited to see your walk with God. Having a relationship with Christ is so fulfilling and encouraging and I’m so glad that you’re excited for it. Thank you for being so vulnerable and speaking about your experience and expressing what you believe! 💛

I love you Syd. So proud of everything you've been through- and how you've handeled all this!! So inspirational!!

This is SO mature Sydney. I left my Catholic church too (for a lot of reasons that are probably obvious) and it's great hearing people who are able to make healthy decisions for themselves

Long time viewer and fellow Christian here! Sydney, I’m so glad that you sought truth and did this even though it was hard and lonely to do. I remember when I began watching you years ago, hoping one day you might look into Christianity. It’s heartbreaking to hear what you and others have endured, and praise God for providing the clarity to bring you out of it. Praying for you as you navigate this new season and rejoicing with you!

Christianity: God’s love is unconditional and his grace is abundant you don’t have to earn it, he gives it freely ❤️

I’m going through a similar situation right now and this video truly gave me courage and showed me the great things that can happen when you trust God. Thank you so much Sydney!

Ah this video is full of testimony and revelation!! I love you and thank you for sharing your experience 💗💗 Praying that your walk with Him goes higher!!!

this is so interesting. i rly admire your boldness doing this! thank you for posting!!!

It has been so amazing to hear your life story and follow your journey through leaving the Lds church. In listening to your videos, it sounds like you are absolutely on the right track. Good for you for doing your own research and questioning everything for yourself!

You are so strong, Your experience is similar to mine (I went to a different church but similar aspects) I am out now but the struggle man was hard. I am glad to see you doing well and how u did your research!

So proud of you. Both of your videos have sparked the voice I need to hear.

Sydney thank you so much for being vulnerable + making this video :)) XOXO

so happy for you Syd, i'm not particularly a religious person at all but have loved these videos and loved watching you grow and evolve!! so so happy for you

Best ever video I’ve seen on Mormonism! God bless! Keep being transparent and honest. The world needs more of it!❤️🌻

Sydney, as I mentioned in my comment on the 1st video, I am so proud of you. I can definitely tell that you’re happier since you left. I couldn’t be happier for you. I’m so excited to see where you go next.

this is so cool to hear the way you’ve sought out truth. “Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you.” (Matthew 7:7)

Praise God! Such an amazing testimony! It’s so amazing that your brave enough to share this kind of testimony and tell others the truth!

Wow, Sydney, as a Christian as well, I am so proud of the decision you have made to leave the mormon church. Thank you from the bottom of my heat for sharing this + being vulnerable. God gave you this platform for so many reasons, sharing Him is definitely one of them!! You are so beautiful + your heart is so pure. I will continue to pray for your relationship with Him! I love you girl!! Thanks for sharing!!

Your video was incredibly inspiring and really opened my eyes! I remember being an active member in the church and finding your videos online years ago. I remember thinking to myself that I needed to be more like you, because you were the “perfect” mormon in my eyes lol. I stopped attending church about 5 years ago as I never felt like I belonged. I hated going to church, and it just never felt right to me. I am now on my own journey to find God! Thank you Syd! Your video personally spoke to me in more ways than I could ever imagine!

Please start a podcast !!! You are such a good speaker. God is in you so evidently. Praying for you on your new faith journey!

i’m so proud of you and i am so glad that you are talking about your experience! ❤️

Syd, I have been watching you since daily vlogs and have been praying for this moment for so long! Literally so happy you found the true Jesus! Keep seeking and loving Him! I’m so happy for you ❤️

i’m so proud. you’re doing great💗 ALSO SIDE NOTE.. LOVE HOW MUCH MORE CONFIDENT YOURE GETTING

I’ve been following u for years now and I cried watching this video. I grew up Christian and watched bc I just love ur personality but seeing your growth is so beautiful. Thank you for sharing this, I knew nothing about Mormon culture and the process but it was extremely insightful to know. Not only are you helping Mormons but also Christians. I love watching God work in u. This following you’ve been blessed with is it helping so many people. You truly are a gift!

This was so well done! You’re so well spoken and kept your thoughts so organized. Praying that your family receives this well and who knows, maybe they’ll start asking questions too and discover who Jesus truly is.

I just want to say this is a dope way to start sharing your story about leaving the Mormon church! I'm really digging house mindful you're being about how you handle this topic. I think it shows your growth and care! Wishing you well on this journey!! 💕💕💕

i hope your relationship with your father wasn't badly affected by this. ps. i so glad to see you so happy lately

So, so proud of you Syd. It takes SO much to think for yourself and do research especially in an environment where you're told not to. Your reflections have so many important lessons for all facets of life too. Trust yourself, think for yourself, do your research, ask questions, do you instead of trying to make everyone else happy, and remind yourself of your worth. Thank you.

I love listening to Mormon Stories and watching ExMo KZfaqrs (Zelph on the Shelf and Jordan & McCay). I’m not ExMo but I find the doctrine fascinating and proud of you for sharing your story!

I grew up Mormon and watching this videos enables me to almost relive my experiences from when I was a member. I really like how you touched on the spirit paralleling one’s feelings, as that’s something I came to realize I really struggled with as a child- I felt unable to distinguish what was me feeling things versus what was the spirit. Everything you brought up is relatable and well researched.

Been soooo excited for this

Omg , i lost track of your videos the past 6months. so much happened in your life!! I m glad to be back 🥰💛 (A french fllower^^)

i am so so so proud of you. and incredibly more proud of you for sticking with God through all of this. you have been so strong through the whole process, despite how difficult it is. sending you so so much love 💗

I had no idea of all the terminology and culture....it’s so confusing and very cult sounding. I’m a Christian and never have been through all of this. Good for you for looking for God outside the Mormon church.

I am so beyond proud of you! I think you should make this public soon (obviously whenever you feel comfortable posting it). Love you❤️

syd, i am so proud of you! i grew up in a catholic church, and around the age of 13 started to question what was being taught, and started questioning my relationship with god. i realized as i got older that my views do not align with the catholic church, but that i still do believe in god/jesus. i personally believe that god is more concerned with your relationship with him, whether you believe in him or not, rather than your specific religion. i know how hard it is for you to question what you grew up believing, and i know how isolating it can feel. i am so proud of you for finding the truth and creating a relationship with god! i’ve been subscribed for about 5 years now, and this journey is so incredible to watch. i have loved seeing you grow over these years and to become more confident and happy with yourself. you are a truly wonderful person, and god knows that.

So proud of you. What strength it takes to seek truth! I can just see God smiling down on you with such love and pride! You are safe with Him 🥰.

Finally! So excited to watch this

Thank you for sharing your experience and opening people up to what it’s like.I’m a Christian and I never really knew the extent of Mormonism.

I am a Bible believing Christian snd I just want to say that the Gospel is offensive!! People are going to get offended by it. I am super proud of you and you will find so many verses in the Bible that backup your statements here and that is what we should be basing our truth off of - The Word of God not a man made book.

Sydney you are so eloquent! I am Catholic/Christian but I have always been very intrigued in the Mormon Church (not converting, just learning about the theology) and this video was SO informative. I wish you the best on your walk with God! You have a bright future ahead of you girl 💗

The fact that you went through all of this and still found the one true God in the midst, praise the Lord! Praising God for your life and so happy that you found faith in Jesus.

Thanks for sharing! Awesome testimony! I appreciate your genuine quest for truth, the belief that real truth will always hold up under scrutiny or test, and the comparison between Christianity and Mormonism, as well as the research on LDS history, the cultural uncomfortables, and the encouragement for others on this kind of remaking journey. I especially appreciate the focus on true relationship with God above all else. That the journey is not about leaving God, but rather about finding God in the truest and purest way instead of being pressured to believe in a form of God you are not allowed to understand or ask genuine questions about or should I say a religion pushing a view of God which is said to be above any question. I also believe that controlled research, narrowed by an organization is dangerous. Freedom to search for truth and to use our minds while led by God’s Spirit is essential. Living with constant blinders on is not healthy or of God, I believe, and it can pretty much justify any religion or belief system. If asking questions is evil or not allowed and no other source is safe you are pretty much pushed to not see beyond what you are told by others. Not allowed to engage the mind God has given us or to trust His leading rather than man’s leading. You could just as easily be a Muslim or Buddhist or any other religion or cult by that method. In my gospel ministry we focus on following God’s truth as revealed in scripture and letting the Lord God be our ultimate teacher and Guide. We are to connect and relate with Him learning of Him to follow Him. Following men rather than God is a recipe for disaster and disappointment. So, we must seek God and follow Him. Jesus Christ is very clear about that! :) (ex. Mark 7:1-23) God bless you in Christ Jesus! PS - I find it compelling evidence on the real nature, character, and origin of Mormonism that the end goal is Godhood (I’ve studied this a bit before). This was the goal of Lucifer or Satan, and it is the precise point on which he led mankind into sin (Genesis 3:1-5). He said Ye shall be as gods, knowing good and evil (if they would eat the forbidden fruit and disobey God himself). His bait was to suggest a path to godhood by making our own laws or rules. He gave man the idea that man could be god, when the Bible is crystal clear that there is only one God, and not another. So a faith promoting the goals and suggestions of Lucifer is definitely on dangerous or sinister ground. (Though many sincerely are not realizing it) Though I imagine the church at least says to obey the God they are promoting.

So proud of you for sharing your story. Everyone is going to have their own opinions when it comes to religion, you have to do with what you feel is right. I stand with you through this 100%

I am so proud of you Syd!! I am an ex Mormon that lives in Utah as well, I remember feeling that it was not true and wrong even when I was 8 years old. I didn’t want to get baptized and was practically forced into it. I’m so happy to see you finding the truth 💕💕💕

I’m so happy you found your true faith. Congrats on beginning your journey with God and your faith walk as a Christian! I’m sure it took an immeasurable amount of courage to leave the only church you knew. I’m proud of you and I’m rooting for you!!! ❤️

I think it would be really interesting to see a video of you and your mom speaking about this! (obviously only if you both wanted to). I'd love to hear her perspective on watching you go from heavily involved to leaving the church as she had gotten out 10+ years before you and was on the outside looking in.

I’m Christian and our pastor is female so hearing the thing about woman in the Mormon church hurts my heart!

I loved this, you were amazing! I could listen you talking about this topic for hours! I dont know anything about religion but the mormon church has so many details and crazy stuff, i would love to hear about them in more depth! Thank you for this and i’m looking foward to follow your journey ❤️

I love your transparency! You are so wise. keep on speaking the truth!!!

thank you for speaking about ur experience ❤️❤️ GOD LOVES YOU

i absolutely loved this video! im catholic but i have always wanted to learn what it was like to be mormon since i have always heard it's a pretty strict religion. also, just a video suggestion for you that i think would help a lot of people. maybe you should post a q&a video where other's ask you questions on ig and you just make a yt video on answering a few of those questions. im sure so many questions and concerns and fear that others had has already been answered in this video but in case there are still lingering burning questions it would be really cool to do a q&a video. thank you so much for the insightful video i genuinely learned so much!!

Thanks for your bravery and courage to share this with others.

Thank you, Sydney! You give a lot of information! Now I know much more about LDS and the back of them.

Can you do a Q&A revolving around how your family/friends reacted to your decision to leave the church? So proud of you❤️

Had no idea mormonisn was this weird. It's shocking that followers don't even know everything about it until a certain age

Thanks so much for this syd, you’re so brave!

Yay!! It’s so cool to see what God has done in your life. I will be praying for you!❤️

go off sydney, you are so brave for leaving that cult

My heart is overwhelmingly happy for you! I am so happy that you found your way out of the rules and religion and are building your relationship with God! 🙌🏻 It is the best choice you will ever make!!

So proud of you syd♥️ just know whenever you feel comfortable posting this, you will be helping out so many people, it makes me so happy that you have been able to find God and understand His love for you♥️ he will bring you so many blessings♥️

you have such courage for this video!! I can't wait to see how God uses you! So excited for your journey of truth!!

yes girl so happy for you!! once you get settled in texas you should visit upperroom church!! i’m pretty sure it’s in dallas if i’m not mistaken, i have some friends there so i can get you connected with people if you’d like!!

You have been so brave and I am proud of you! I am not mormon but I loved hearing your story! I pray that your relationship with God will continue to grow and blossom.

oh I have been WAITING for part 2👁👄👁

Ahhh. This was so good! I would def recommend promoting this and making it very public. SO many people need to hear this. You made this very easy to listen to and understand. So many people will relate and learn from this. Proud of you. 💓

Sounds like you have a testimony!!! So incredible how God has revealed himself to you! Welcome to the family!!!

Reading “unveiling Grace: the story of how we found our way out of the Mormon church” by Lynn Wilder now. My teen son spends a LOT of time with a Mormon family but he grew up Christian. There is such a difference between the two. It’s good to know what he may be seeing or hearing about when with that family. Thank you for your videos.

Wow. Thank you so much for sharing! God is definitely working through you and opened your eyes to see the truth! I literally got chills and shed tears during this video, it just reminded me how God works and how you are never to far gone to know the truth.

The truth shall set you free. Your free. You go girl.

you’re amazing! I have so many friends that are Mormon and I have always wanted to understand their religion in depth. This was so helpful. I’m a Christian and constantly experience Jesus’ real raw love. Praying for you! It’s insane what God can do in your life if you just stay faithful. The fact that He gave you that discernment is such a testimony. God is working so big in your life. :)

Your conviction for the truth is commendable. Heresy is a very serious issue for me as well. You will continue to find the truth as long as you keep seeking it. I'm very happy you are finding freedom in the pursuit of truth.

I too left the mormon church. I am 70 now and left 50 years ago. I joined the Marines when I was 18 and was exposed to many religions for the 8 years I was in the service. After being exposed to the truth for a few years I am a Baptist now and I am finally learning about Christ and have been born again. It was tough because the whole family was Mormon and I was disowned by them. I now live in a very small town in Southeastern Utah surrounded by Mormons who try to keep working on me but with no success. Once you really know Christ and are born again and receive the holy spirit you can not go back again. Thank you for your message as I now know I am not the only one going through this experience

WOW this 2 part video was so enlightening to watch (even as a Christian)! So proud and happy for you on this journey of your self discovery and learning more about Jesus :) many blessings to you Sydney! Keep sharing Jesus' love and light :)

Great video, thank you, you are very brave to open up about this issue.

I love listening to your journey, Sydney! Praying that you will continue to learn and grow in your personal relationship with God and that you will be able to find His incredible peace!

Satan wants to exalt himself and be God, and disguises himself as an angel of light. Critical thinking is a God given gift

You are so bold & strong to stand & reveal the truth. You sure got that testimony you were desiring long ago ❤️ Continue to wreck the world with the love of Jesus !!! We are standing with you🙏🏼

So proud of you, Sydney. Good luck with your new adventure and find what best works for you. be it Christianity/ or anything else it's your decision.

So proud of you. God is using you.

Go sis!!!! So proud of you!
